Maybe 'Can't Help Falling In Love' (from A Fine Mess soundtrack (1986) ) and 'Roll With Me, Henry' (from Rock, Rhythm, and Blues (1989) ) should be included. (?) She didn't write either song, but some fans may want them included, just for the sake of completeness.

Even though she didn't write "I'd Rather Go Blind" it is still on her solo album, I think it should count also. |

I see bootlegs and demos are not included... so I can't vote for Christine's version of Gypsy
Just kidding.

I know right!
I thought it best to exclude demo's as that can get into a murky area. |

How about also including "Gone Into the Sun" and the other songs of hers from the Madison Blues compilation?
I think a good rule for inclusion would be: any studio or live recording appearing on an official release, on which she is the lead singer (or co-lead singer). It shouldn't matter if it was recorded by Fleetwood Mac, Chicken Shack, Christine solo, or another artist.

Madison Blues is a three-disk box set released in 2003 of recordings from the post-Peter Green transitional period. It starts off with a set of four songs by Christine with the band with whom she recorded her solo record. The four songs are "Hey Baby," "It's You I Miss," "Gone Into the Sun," and "Tell Me You Need Me." Any list of all of Christine's songs should have those. (I personally think "Gone Into the Sun" is a great, great song.)
Much of the rest of the compilation consists of live recordings, some of which feature vocals by Christine. Some of the live songs she sings also appear as studio recordings, but there is one live song ("Lonely Without You") that to my knowledge isn't on any of her studio recordings, so I'd include that on a definitive list, too. Here is some info on the comp: http://discog.fleetwoodmac.net/discog.php?pid=403. By the way, the compilation also includes that fabulous "lost" song by Danny Kirwan, "Purple Dancer."

Another song to add to the list is "Come Out To Play," the unreleased track from In the Meantime.

I'll add these songs - Hey Baby; It's You I Miss; Gone Into the Sun; Tell Me You Need Me; Lonely Without You - in a poll by themselves titled Madison Blues, after her Chicken Shack songs and before the Christine Perfect album. I'll add "Come Out to Play" to the In the Meantime poll. Anything else Ledgies, let me know! |

I'll get the first poll for Christine's Chicken Shack songs tonight. Please read the first post in this thread for contest rules/regulations. I hope we get a lot of Ledgie turn out for this contest. I don't think this forum gets noticed much.

Still need to name what this collection shall be called.
Over and Over, So Excited, and Just Perfect have all been suggested by Ledgies so far. I've been calling it "The Definitive Christine McVie Collection". |
